Brief Summary
CR-POSSUM is one of the most used surgical scores to predict mortality after colorectal surgery. Its main drawback is the requirement of intraoperative variables, whose collection is time-consuming and prevents from obtaining a purely preoperative risk assessment. The primary aim of the study is to develop a new surgical score using preoperative parameters to predict 30-day mortality after colon cancer surgery in the elderly population. The secondary objective is to analyze its efficacy compared to CR-POSSUM.
